Selecting Programs and Setups

Select a performance mode by pressing the Program or Setup buttons in the Mode Select region
(we call these mode-selection buttons). The mode you're in affects how the Program/Setup Select
region buttons work.

Program Mode

There are 3 bank buttons for selecting 6 different banks in Program Mode. The Red and Green
colors of the button's LED correspond to two banks. So, you can select one of Primary, Secondary,
Orchestral, General MIDI, User and Expansion.
16 buttons on the right side are divided into 8 Category Select buttons in the upper row and 8
Program Select Buttons in the lower row. One Category Select button can choose 2 different
categories, the LED color of the button shows what category you have selected.
Program Select Buttons are used to select a specific program within a category. Once it's pressed,
the program is remembered as the preference of the category. For example, if you select "004 Solo
Grand Piano" in the "Piano 1" category and then select other categories, "004 Solo Grand Piano "
is restored when the "Piano 1" category is selected again.
If a category has more than 8 programs, the separate green LED turns on. It indicates that you
can select more than 8 programs. For example, the "Solo String" category in the Orchestral bank
includes 14 programs, so when it's selected, the 1st through the 6th Program Select Buttons have
both Red and Green colors to choose the 9th through the 14th program.

Setup Mode

The Primary/Secondary and Orchestral/Gen MIDI bank button LEDs have only the red color in
Setup mode, whereas the User/Expansion bank button LED has both Red and Green colors like
3-10
